I have developed this interface at first to use with this Synthesizer that I own for my personal use, all is working well on my configurations (PC and MAC). I have decided to publish it for the peoples who want to use it, free of charge. It may be not perfect and is delivered as it, without any warranty that it will work fine on your configuration.
